We arrived at 8:20 on a Saturday night. By 8:45pm, we had packed up our bags and left. There was…read moreonly one other guest staying in the whole place, and when I tried to ask the owner if we could switch to a less noisy room, we got a barrage of verbal bullying and abuse. I tried to explain that I wasn't complaining about the noise (car radios blaring and racing motorcycles), but was just asking about a room facing the back of the house. She escalated to banging on our door, and aggressively suggesting that we leave. Not sure what "normal" might look like to her, but that wasn't it. We left, and were able to quickly find lodging outside the area. I would NOT recommend this place to anyone!!

This was my first bed & breakfast experience and it did not disappoint. I was quite surprised to…read morefind this place so close to RPI and in a not appealing part of Troy. Despite the area this place satisfies my needs of a cozy place to sleep with the added bonus of a fully stocked breakfast home made by the innkeeper, Tina. It was quite a mansion and filled with items that almost reminded There are five rooms and a nice fenced off-street parking lot with assigned parking for each room. The front door is a keyless entry that uses a code provided by Tina before arriving. I stayed at the more inexpensive Oatman room on the second floor which requires sharing a full bath and a half bathroom on the first floor with the Dunphy room. A bit of an inconvenience but definitely manageable and both bathrooms were immaculate and had clean towels and a soap dispenser. For $60 a night, I can't complain. The Oatman room had two twin beds, a desk, dresser and a bit dated TV with VCR. Didn't really mind since the place included free wifi for me to connect my tablet. Also the closet had plenty of hangers and also bathrobes. One thing I should've brought were slippers and perhaps shower shoes. Morning breakfast was great and I got to meet the few other guests as Tina took our orders and made a delicious over easy eggs with ham and blueberry pancakes. There was also the continental breakfast variety of coffee, pastries, and juice but with the more personal touch. I look forward to booking a room again!

Earlier, it had seen much activity during the 1751 French and Indian Wars and later, during World War II, it housed temporary billeting for war factory workers. Attended a family wedding here and the ambience was impressive. The food was on the order and magnitude of Michelin guide books. Views and vistas of the river and the manicured grounds were memorable, made doubly so during the splendid explosion of autumn foliage colors! Solid 5 stars. Even the water infiltration into our bathroom caused by a roof leak due to the two days of nonstop rain couldn't detract from the overall experience. We simply asked the front desk for extra towels and partied on (whilst the plumbers were called). Thank you staff of Glen Sanders for a wonderful experience and thank you readers for reading my review.

My personal feeling is that they need to step up the food game. During the appetizer hour the shrimp and the meatballs were good, the little (cheese steak?) sandwiches were pretty greasy. At dinner, the salads seemed plated and dressed well beforehand (mostly cores with soggy croutons). The beef dish was good (I had a bite of someone's) the chicken (parm) was not good at all.

This is a review of only the cocktail lounge. Friends from out of town were staying in the…read morecarriage house behind the hotel and we agreed to gather in the lounge for a drink or two. The building itself is impressive, although maybe not quite as impressive as the castle-looking building next door. Our party of seven settled in at the bar as there otherwise did not seem to be a large enough table for all of us to gather around in either the main lounge area or a small room off to the side. The dark wood paneled walls, large fireplace, assortment of easy chairs, couches, and high desktop table gave off a feeling of warmth and welcoming. The friendly bartender introduced herself (sorry I've forgotten her name) and informed us that spirit-wise, the bar was capable of preparing the standard, traditional drinks like Manhattans, martinis, etc. All beers were poured from cans, and at my request, she recited the names of about six that were available. I don't believe anyone in our party inquired about the wines that were available. The building simply calls out for an explanation of its history. Upon our request, the bartender offered to provide either the "brief" or "full" option. We requested the full history. She was obviously well up to the task. You would be amazed at the variety of things you could learn here. Just to touch on a few key topics that were mentioned, consider Alexander Hamilton's wife, puffed rice, Bab-o cleanser (cue up the jingle), Bishop Gibbons, and an orthopedic surgeon. I don't know what the normal food arrangements are in the Lounge. I'm guessing that our out-of-town hosts requested some snacks for us as a few bowls appeared with mixed nuts, crackers and cheese, fresh grapes, humus, and warm pretzel/croissant rolls, and a plate of prosciutto wrapped cream cheese. Overall, the atmosphere here is simply friendly and inviting. I think it will become an occasional gathering place for our local friends when looking for a place that is quiet and relaxing.

It's absolutely gorgeous…read more If not for attending an event here last evening I would have missed this slice of architectural heaven! The owners have renovated it with great care. The rooms are furnished with just the right amount of furniture allowing the room to feel light and airy. Each room is designed with the right amount of seating for flow and multiple conversation points without anyone feeling crowded or being interrupted by another conversation. Although the rooms have dark paneling the large windows and French doors allow for an abundance of light. The backyard is lovely and flows into Washington Park! Imagine having a whole park as your backyard!! I would love to come back for a stay!

We stayed at the Washington Park Inn on the night of 8/16/26. It was supposed to be a 4-night stay…read more We elected to leave and find better accommodations. The following paragraph, and the pictures attached, was from the email sent to the owner/operator after our first, and only, night. The email was resent after receiving a generic "Thank you for staying with us" email on 8/21/26. When we left in the morning I also sent a text message to the contact number we were given. As of the date of this review (8/30/26) I have received no response in any form. I cannot argue the lack of refund due to accepting the policy when booking but I would expect an acknowledgment of my communications. I will say that the common area inside did appear to be nicely maintained and clean. My rating is based on the significant differences between website photos/descriptions and actual conditions and the complete lack of response to my communications. "We were very disappointed in the condition of the inn. Aside from the cosmetic condition around the outside of the building, we were disappointed to find light bulbs out in our room, the bathroom doorknob that appeared ready to fall off, curtains and blinds that did not block the streetlights streaming in, missing blinds on one window, windows that could not be locked, no apparent climate control for our room (even a table fan would have been helpful), a thoroughly unimpressive view of basketball courts and a skate park (not Washington Park) from our window, and under the bed looked like it had not been cleaned. While the room was sufficient enough to sleep in for one night, we did not feel that it was worth staying as we were celebrating an anniversary and had expected a more intimate and comfortable stay. The pictures and descriptions from the website appeared to be somewhat misleading. I recall the refund policy did not include early check outs but in light of the multiple deficiencies at the property that prompted our early departure, and given that the room will be available to you for rebooking, I am respectfully requesting a partial refund of 50% (just the room fee for 2 nights) of our reservation cost.

The room we reserved was not the room we stayed in therefore making it difficult to work without a desk and the extra space we paid for but didn't get. No one apologized for this inconvenience. The amenities were not as stated on their website either. Only one bike available, no pressed coffee, no charcuterie either. Our bed was comfortable but our room either too hot or very cold. Easy parking and very clean. The cleaning lady was very nice! Make sure and stay upstairs, the rooms downstairs I think would not be very quiet. If the amenities were as they advertised I would stay here again.
